Its okay for its price point

For 40€, its nothing to be expected, okay build quality, the lower part of the throne is pretty well built, but the upper half, where you sit on, is not that great.

There's not alot of cushioning on the seat, when you sit on it, all the air from the cushioning comes out by some tiny holes that are on the side of the seat. After 5 minutes of playing, it just feels like your sitting on a wood seat, because there's not alot of cushioning.

I put my throne up pretty high, there is one part of the throne where you can attach the seat with the throne, there's only one part that is gonna keep the seat from tilting, but it doesn't to a great job. After I turned it on tight, so the seat doesn't get flimsy, after a little bit of playing, the bolt that held it tight, went loose.

So when you play for 10 mins, you have to turn the bolt tight again, due to it getting unstable and loose again.

If you look at the different types of drum thrones that are available on the market, this throne is one of the cheapest of them all.

If you're are looking for a good drum throne, I would suggest you to buy a throne, that costs over 60-70€

If you're looking for the CHEAPEST drum throne, this would be it. But beaware of the cons of this drum throne, they can get pretty annoying after long time use.

Not worth the money

I bought this throne because it was the only one in my budget while buying e-drums. The price is cheap, and I couldn't just drum on a regular chair, so I figured I'd buy it.

First of all, the cushion always deflates when I sit on it. Not a huge problem, but it feels weird, and it gets uncomfortable after an hour or so.

Second, and the worst problem. No matter how hard I tighten the screws on it, it always comes loose. This is a huge problem because I lose stability and it makes kicking, especially double kicking, extremely uncomfortable and hard.

Thirdly, the maximum height is still pretty short. I'm 5'10 and on max, my legs are just above parallel to the ground. Would have loved an extra inch or two on it.

So conclusion, if you really can't afford anything else, sure, buy it. But you'll probably end up looking for a better one after a few months.

Anyone who needs a 400kg wont sit comfortable on this

Let's be honest here, for what you pay its good value and its the only one as far as i been able to tell that lists a weight limit.

Now i am nowhere near 400KG but at 2 meters tall i am a big guy

and right of the bat i can tell you that anyone that needs to look at weight limits, like me, will not sit comfortably on this throne

the seat is tiny, there is practically no cushing and literally within 5 minutes my butt and back were hurting.

Now im not saying its a bad throne, if you're an avarage person or a kid this might suit you very well, but us big guys better keep looking

Okay

Does the job. The foam is quite thin and soft, so it doesn't support the body weight too well. Okay for shorter sessions, wouldn't want to seat on one of these for an entire day.

It works but...

You get what you pay for. The ring keeps loosening, the padding is cheap and you get a sore behind after a while. There are a lot of better products out there but for the money is ok.

Really unstable throne!

You hear the air leaking sound literally every time you sit on it.

The locking screw probably keeps the throne in place and some seconds then it wobbles and spins you around. This would be perfect for you if you want to spin around while drumming. So, you need to screw the lock every minute to keep it in place.

I would not recommend buying this, you should rather invest a bit more and get something in a higher price range.

Metal good , cushion bad

The actual hardware is strong, cushion leaves a lot to be desired. Like sitting on a piece of ply. Cheap seat so to be expected. Still useable.

NEEDS IMPROVEMENT

Not the most comfortable, locking boss and wingnut constantly loosen when playing. Also needs regular lubrication to prevent the threaded height adjuster squeaking

Too soft...

This is for sitting and not to be used for the neck and head. Foam should not be too soft like a pillow. A harder (more dense) foam should be used instead.

Just adequate quality, but low price

Since the price is so low it could be way worse. It's not the most comfortable or stable throne, but it gets the job done when you are in need of a cheap or temporary throne.

It still gets used by the guitar player during rehearsals :)

deflating cushion.

Sturdy and good quality construction. Height range is fine. Just the pillow itself is rubbish. When you sit on it it deflates, sinking about 7cm and you end up sitting on something kinda mushy. A long session and my butt

hurts!

Let down by the stability

After playing for a while, everything loosens and starts to wobble. I'd advise to pay a bit more for a higher quality brand

value for the money

if you like to play higher up, it can be a little unstable, not as steady as my Mapex throne, but at 20mm diameter head, it fits most other thrones (ie percussion plus).

Does the job

I found that I was forever adjusting this and eventually I had to modify completely, Overall just about Ok.

Little wobbly

It's a nice throne, but a bit wobbly. I do have to adjust it quite high because of my 205cm length, so that could be a factor. I think it will be a good throne for smaller people or kids. Easy in adjusting, and easy assembly

It does the work

My only complain is after long sessions it can be uncomfortable, but in general is a decent throne for the price.

Millenium MDT4 Drum Throne Round

For the amount of money paid it's good, but if you want better quality look elsewhere.

"My friend" who is a little on the stronger side had a problem when he sat on the chair - it started to slowly slip down making it unpleasant.

Low price-low expections

It looks good, but after a short use, the seat started to shake,but I'm only 75kg. It must be sealed between the rod of the stand and the seat hole. But at that price it's worth it.

Great starter kit

This is a great drum kit for starters. It is easy to set up and perfect for practice. My son is using it and has progressed well as a result.

Unstable

This is the first drum throne that I've ever purchased so I don't have anything to compare it against.

Having said that I find it quite difficult to get at the various fittings in order to tighten or loosen them, especially the wing nut that locks the height adjustment.

The problem is that the wing nut is much too close to the collar that sits above the fixed part of the stoll upright so when you turn the nut the wings rub right up against the collar making it hard to adjust.

If I ever buy another drum throne I will be paying particular attention to this area as this has made it difficult for me to get the height of the seat just right.
